"Naruto ga Hokage ni natta hi" is a Japanese 10-minute animated short film that managed to rack up millions and millions of views on Youtube since the day it was released roughly 9 months ago. So this shows us already how popular Naruto still is after all these years. I personally must admit though that anime was never high on my watch-list and judging from this one here, at least in terms of Naruto, apparently I wasn't missing too much. The mix of innocent comedy (and family life) with an upcoming event of utmost importance is not exactly working out. When we see the father lie in bed, we cannot be sure initially if he may be dead and this is a dark dramatic little movie, but instead it is really (also with the way he wakes up) a colorful comedic little movie that never reaches its full potential though. Especially the big ceremony at the very end was not half as good and memorable as it could/should have been. I personally was not inspired by this most recent entry to the Naruto universe to take a deeper look into the series and spin-offs. Also the boy who turns out the central character eventually seemed really unimportant most of the time next to the little girl. I personally give "The Day Naruto Became Hokage" (big spoiler in the title I guess) a thumbs-down. Don't watch.
score 4/10
